“Krystal is such an attentive and caring sitter for my cat Zuko! He’s usually shy around other people but he always greets and happy to see Krystal ! She also gets the best pictures of Zuko for the Rover cards!”

“Sandy is the best!! I have zero worries about my Lily girl when I leave town. Sandy always treats Lily like her own and makes sure the routine is stable and consistent, which helps Lily have less anxiety while I’m away. As always, THANK YOU Sandy for all you do!”

“Would definitely recommend Marianne. She is great with my cats, communicated really well with me and will definitely book her in the future. Thank you for your kindness, my cats are missing you already 🫶”

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining daily routines. I focus on calm handling, safety, consistency, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and secure while owners are away🐾🐶🐈⬛ I currently maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize quality time and attentive care for your pets. I am available for boarding and daycare throughout the week and sometimes on weekends. My routine is designed around providing regular exercise, play sessions, and plenty of companionship, ensuring your pet feels right at home and never lonely while you're away I provide a calm, safe, and nurturing environment for every pet I host. My home is set up to be a peaceful retreat where pets can relax on comfortable rugs or floor seating. Safety is my top priority; I stick to a consistent feeding and walking schedule and ensure the space is kept clean and free of hazards. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same care and respect I would my own.
“I can not overstate how awesome Shannon is! She was incredibly kind and easy to work with and was wonderful with my pug, Clementine and her needs. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone who hopes to have their baby in good hands.”

“Alexandra took excellent care of my kitty. She was punctual, very communicative, and sent lots of pictures throughout my trip. Most importantly, my cat was happy, healthy, and well cared for when I returned home. I would gladly book with her again.”

I currently have no pets , so your pet will get my full love and attention. Your pet will get extra love from my sweet daughter and husband, who are both absolute pet lovers. I can also administer medicine or follow any special instructions you may have. I take this seriously, I have cared for elderly blind dogs, cats with wounds that needed treatment, so I have experience with certain special needs. You can also count on constant photos and texts to keep you updated on how your animal is doing. Caring for animals is my full time job and my passion.

“Jenny took great care of our 4 month old puppy! He is high energy and needs a lot of attention and we felt completely comfortable leaving him in her hands. We received updates and pictures throughout the day which is always appreciated. Definitely recommend and look forward to using Jenny’s services again in the future!”

About: I have owned dogs my whole life. Right now i own a extremely friendly cat. But I have dog care experience my whole life. Your dog will get plenty of play and exercise when they are with me. I live whiten short walking distance of two really nice parks. I am a huge animal lover so now need to worry about your pet not getting any affection from me. I have a large apartment so when your pet is inside my home it will have plenty of roaming room or plenty of carpet space for a nap. I am extremely flexible with times and dog sizes. I would love to do anything from board your dog to walking it to watching it in your home. I am a trustworthy people person. With me you will know your dog is safe and well cared for. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my weekly routine because I’ve built my schedule to be flexible and dependable. I make time each day to care for pets, whether it’s early morning check-ins, afternoon walks, or evening feedings and playtime. I prioritize reliability and punctuality, so I carefully plan my week to ensure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Since I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, pet sitting is more than just a job—it's something I look forward to every day. Whether I'm working part-time or around school or other responsibilities, I always make sure to maintain consistent availability and communicate clearly with pet parents to meet their needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is to maintain a safe, clean, and comforting environment that helps pets feel relaxed and secure in their familiar space. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, walk times, play preferences, and any specific behavioral needs. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection (if they want it!) while also respecting their boundaries and personalities. I keep the home tidy, clean up after the pets, and ensure food/water bowls, litter boxes, and sleeping areas are fresh and organized. I also provide regular updates and photos to keep pet parents informed and reassured. Trust and respect are important to me—not only for the pets but also for the homes I’m welcomed into. I treat every home with care and professionalism, just like I would my own. Unfortunately I can not care for pets in my own at this time because I live in a tiny studio apartment.
“Ted was awesome! We met beforehand to introduce him to our two dogs. Ted was instantly a hit with them so we scheduled 3 drop-in visits for 6 days and the dogs were perfectly taken care of, including daily walks and playtime. My dogs loved Ted so much that I didn't get one spiteful poop from my little dog in his secret, "I'm-mad-you-left-me", spot. Ted also sent photos and comprehensive updates through the Rover app after each visit. I will definitely be booking with Ted again.”

“She was awesome! My baby Mia loved playing with her. Very trustworthy person. She made sure my baby was ok and updated me the whole time. Will use her again in the future!”

About: I have been a kennel technician and an animal care specialist at animal control. I have numerous experience with cats and dogs. I have helped delivered puppies, took care of all animals for extended periods and have overnight dog sat for more than 2 weeks at a time. I am currently working but my hours are flexible and i am in nursing school full time so i am available as much as possible. I can fit your pet into my routine with no problem! I have a fenced yard and a dog at home. I will care for the animals in the clients home but not my own due to my dog not being so well with animals since he was abused very heavily before he came to me. Now he’s a spoiled baby!! I will follow a schedule with no problem and reassure my client with constant communication and understanding that their animal is being 100% loved and cared for.
“Shelby was awesome! She kept us updated throughout our trip to help keep peace of mind. Frankie loved the extra attention given, will most definitely be contacting her again for any upcoming travel. Thanks again!”

About: I have over five years of personal experience with cats and dogs. In my homeland, my daughter and I raised a wonderful cat whom she named Lucia, in honor of Lucifer 😀 Later on, I cared for a dog and a kitten. Currently, I live with a friendly dog named Luna, and we have a spiritual connection. I'm always surrounded by paws, these cuties make me happy, and we spend wonderful time together happily, safely, and comfortably! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I live with a dog. My flexible schedule allows me to easily fit drop-in visits into my morning, afternoon, or evening routines. When visiting your home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I strictly follow all owner instructions, keep doors locked, and ensure your pet is happy, fed, and safe before I leave.

About: I have had animals (dogs, cats, livestock and more) my entire life. I grew up on a farm know what animals need and how they interact with people and other animals. I’m available most anytime with notification. I am always working but if I have a pet to care for it will be the first priority. I am able to stop at your home feed, walk, clean up after them and myself. Stay with them as needed. Available for stay over night when needed.
About: Welcome to Golden Paradise — a safe, loving home-away-from-home for your pup in Stuart. I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Since I work from home, your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I have hands-on experience training and caring for dogs, including successfully training my own golden retriever with advanced obedience skills. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable with energetic dogs as well as calm companions. Your dog will enjoy playtime, walks, and a spacious yard for supervised outdoor time. We also have a pool area for relaxing and outdoor fun, with dogs always closely supervised for safety. Whether your pup loves fetch, cuddles, or relaxing inside, I tailor care to what makes them happiest. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout their stay, so you always know your dog is safe, happy, and having fun at Golden Paradise. I work from home, so your pets will me home with them throughout the day. With a fenced-in backyard and a pool, your pet can run and play, and they’ll have my 2 year-old golden retriever as a playful companion! I have a fenced-in backyard with a pool where your dog can play and swim. If you prefer crating, I can accommodate that as well. My dog and I typically go for a walk in the morning, enjoy playtime in the yard during the day, and take a long walk after work. On weekends, we love taking him to the beach to run and play fetch – and your dog would enjoy the same routine!
About: I've always had a deep connection with dogs. I bring a very calming canine energy, and trust is gained quickly. Anyone who has a dog(s) and knows me well will ask me to sit for them when they can't provide the care their dogs need. When I retired from my successful 45 year sales career, I had planned on getting a dog. As it's turned out, my friends and neighbors with dogs have kept me very busy. And it's been the most fulfilling and gratifying chapter of my life. I just have an innate ability to connect with dogs and what I give to them, they give back to me. It's been a very rewarding time in my life now that I get to do what I love best: to be surrounded with canine company. And I can unequivocally and honestly say I'm very good at it. As I said, I'm retired and can easily accommodate the needs of prospective clients. I'm readily available and am very flexible with you and your dog's schedules. I live in my recently renovated condo in the very upscale community of Coral Ridge in Fort Lauderdale. It's a small two-story residence easily accessible to lush parks and magnificent estate homes. We have excellent security with a Neighborhood Watch and private 24 hour Coral Ridge Patrols. Patrolling

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lauderdale-by-the-Sea
I was really worried about booking any pet sitter because my older kitty was just diagnosed with early kidney disease. Sammie needs to be fed a special diet in a separate room from my other cat (who will eat anything and everything!). Courtney was extremely caring with both of my kitties and followed instructions perfectly. If I could give 10 stars I would and I definitely will hire Courtney for my next trip.

Page was excellent! She was super communicative, handled everything like a pro, took AMAZING photos of my boy, and handled my OCD with the litter like we’ve known each other forever! I have literally not had a better experience with anyone on Rover. She stayed extra, loved Loki like her own, and was generally so so amazing. She helped my anxiety with leaving him for so long! Could not have been a better fit. Page is top notch and I will be booking with her for the foreseeable future, even some walks with Loki! Thank you again, Page!!!

We’ve had a wonderful experience with Kayla. She is great with our two cats, including our elderly cat who needs medication, and we feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in her care. They clearly enjoy her visits and are relaxed and happy when we get home. We especially appreciate the photos and updates she sends—it really gives us peace of mind to know she’s keeping such a close eye on them. We would absolutely recommend her!

Genesis was an amazing sitter. She loved my kitties like they were her own. Showering them with love, pets, attention, and always kept me updated with lots of photos and videos. She also helped with up-keeping my plants while I was away. I completely recommend her to any cat parent ❤️

I just returned from my trip and I’m hoping I am typing correctly here but I just wanted to say that Ashley was THE PERFECT sitter for my sweet boy cat. I was able to book her at the last minute and she not only came to my rescue but surpassed all my expectations for what one looks for in a cat sitter. She automatically sent me photos & a video, and asked all the right questions to help aid in taking care of Sachi. I couldn’t have been more pleased with her service and I’m hoping to book her in the future. I loved her care & concern to details and to Sachi’s safety. Ashley was awesome.

Tammy was amazing with Foma. She was attentive, patient, and handled his curious, playful personality so well (including his love for treats and getting into everything). She kept a close eye on him, took great pictures, and even brought him toys he loved. We felt completely at ease knowing Foma was in such good hands and would highly recommend her.

Jennifer is AMAZING! I couldn’t be happier with the care my my cat (Lily) received! From the very first visit, it was clear that she truly loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. She gave me so much peace of mind while I was away—sending updates, photos, and little notes that made me feel completely at ease. My cat, Lily, who can be a bit picky with new people, absolutely adored her! It was such a relief knowing she was not only well cared for but genuinely happy. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and loving cat sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾💛

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
